Incredible day wing foiling today at the Range with the crew. Foiling is insanely fun and opens up so many new experiences and conditions on the ocean. I am hooked and stoked to be riding North wings paired with this incredible Starboard Ace foilboard. If you are thinking about getting into foiling in any form (surf, sup, wing) drop me a message and I’ll point you in the right direction for learning and gear recommendations! The foiling community is growing and the vibes are always fun!

It seems like the ocean has fallen asleep for the past month with our lack of waves but we have had a great run of sea breezes and excellent conditions for kiting, winging, and foiling! Adding a wind or paddle sport to your ocean repertoire can definitely multiply your days on water in Nova Scotia.
